i go to a reeally small school and im new this yr and i have a lot of friends and i know people like me but i heard that some kids think im conceited. I will be honest i do think im pretty but i know others are prettier than me. i joke around a lot but im not serious. this one girl in particular makes comments about it all the time and shes the only girl i know of that thinks im conceited but a girl told me more people do too. but im just kidding when i make comments and i mean i do think im pretty and i have self confidence but im not going to be like every other girl and be like oh no i think im fat or no im so ugly! cause thats stupid. i guess i could be more humble but its not like i try to be conceited! i just want them to know who i really am and see the real me and understand that im NOT. the girl who thinks im conceited is nice to like everyone except me-she always makes comments and i think its mean. what should i do? just write her a note or sumthing explaining that im just kidding when i make comments and i know im not like the prettiest girl ever or w/e. also i think she is jealous of my self confidence but i wish she couldnt be mean instead. thanks so much and your advice would be greatly appreciated! and i will rate :]
Trust me, its a compliment, no matter how 'mean' it may sound. It just means that everyone acknowledges how above them you are, whether it be looks or just confidence. No matter how much you kid around, deep down you know:if you got it, flaunt it. Don't ever let people get you down because you know how good you are, and don't ever apologize for it, cause that would be giving them what they've wanted all along. When you get right down to it, its highschool. In other words, its bullshit. No one, not even you, will give importance to any of it in a couple years. And if this girl (who obviously has no life and a lack of self esteem) persists, why not play her game? After all, the adjetive "conceited" needs the attitude to back it up. You ARE yourself, and as soon as you're not, you're simply one of the rest. Hope this helps <3. [ DJzmAgUy426's advice column | Ask DJzmAgUy426 A Question ]

So Ived had this same problem too, what i just did was be myself. thats all you really can do because if u weren't it would kind of make you fake so be yourself. maybe those girls are calling you conceited because they know that your pretty and they're self concious with themselves. You shouldnt really care what they think of you people will always judge you and will think wat they want no matter wat you do, its how u feel bout yourself...
so tell them you arent conceited and or ignore them
---thats wat i did---
hope i helpd a little [ basketballchick14's advice column | Ask basketballchick14 A Question ]
